SiliconesUpdated 3 months ago

What are they and what do they do?

Silicones are used in hair care to provide shine and lubrication, and they also provide glide, slip, conditioning, and detangling benefits!

 

Should I avoid silicones?

Silicones are non-toxic and completely safe for use in hair care products! They provide a multitude of benefits, which is why they are commonly found in many formulas – not just in our collections, but other brands as well! Some may have concerns about how silicones can build up in your hair over time, so you may want to be mindful of this, and we're working toward either eliminating or using water-soluble silicones as we re-evaluate each product for performance!
